The Entrepreneurial Web

The Industrial Age concept of a team is not appropriate for collaboration on the Internet

The design side solution point in the environment of the Internet

The Hyper Hyper situation may seem unique in the world of bricks and mortar but in the Hilbert Solution Space of the Internet - where all the dimensions are people - such a situation is far from unique. Defining a solution as a place where it is possible to get maximum information from a group of people, it can readily be seen how Internet Special Interest Discussion Forums provide many such points. There are tens of thousands of these groups in operation, each with a unique group of subscribers and each with a unique subject matter. Hanging out in any one of these email discussion forums is the Internet world's equivalent of hanging out in Hyper Hyper to see what the fashion leaders are wearing.

Now, as unlikely as it was for me to become successful in the highly competitive world of fashion, it seems equally unlikely that I could become recognised as an expert in multimedia programming. Yet, I managed to do it, simply by finding the appropriate point in the Hilbert solution space of the Internet to hang out.
